    This is normally not said in December!

    Especially for a beer that is supposed to be more common at OH, Forever Ever.

    I think this is just because a lot of people have off (NY, NJ, CT, PA, and other visitors for the holidays).

    There are million tourists coming to the city today for NYE and I'm sure a few of them are beer nerds. I knew something was up when a ton of people I don't know liked my pic of the cans yesterday on instagram.

    Plus these are 2 new cans.

    That's different I don't see an issue if you're discreet and respectful

    Wow, shocked but not shocked. Biggest tourist week of the year for New York, plus lots of locals have off (not me unfortunately), plus Phish in town (those heads love their beer).

    Thanks to everyone who is posting updates. I'm trying to remain optimistic that there will be some cans left this afternoon.

    Just tried the Superillo. Very tasty. Like Tang but better.

    Are they doing growler fills for Superillo? Or just "pours" :slight_smile:

    Was going to leave in 5 minutes to head there thinking the line would have dissipated by 11am, based on what you're all saying I'm going to wait it out and see. I'm not waiting there 4+ hours like on Street Green day.

    Man I was going to sneak out of work and do a there in back from 34th in an hour or so. Sounds like that's off the table.

    Just got here. Line is about halfway between Centre and Garnet but seems to be moving somewhat steadily

    40 minutes to get from Garnet to Center. Moving way faster than Street Green.

    Also, while I'm not in the mood to argue over bottle shares in line, I am feeling slightly sorry for those people who would drink before 10am on a Thursday, but to each their own.

    What's the etiquette on holding spots in line for people? So many people just casually strolling up and joining people towards front of line

    While on other days I would tend to agree, it's NYE so I think they get a pass. Nah mean?

    Word is there's now a cash only line. Much shorter.

    It's bullshit. I don't mind one person joining a friend, but when I see a group of people walk up and join the line it drives me mad. Also it's another reason I don't wait in line for beer anymore because I'll prob get into a fight with those assholes.

    No. No one- not even one can jump the line. If you want to be with your friend, come together or the guy in the front can move to the back.

    While I agree with you - what if the two friends arrived together and one went to get coffee and came back?

    That's fine. If people arrive together, I don't mind one going to grab food, use the restroom, etc.
